Seminar Overview
A key skill required of many people, including those working in or newly introduced to a financial role, is the ability to understand key financial statements.
All organisations produce some form of financial statements, and most people will, at some point in their careers, have a need to be able to read and understand these.
Accountancy has its own language and in order to be able to read and understand the financial statements, you need to learn the language – or at least learn some of the primary words used in that language. This half-day workshop will enhance your ability to read and understand financial statements by introducing you to the language of accounting and the layout of these financial statements.
Our Expert Trainer Stewart Roche, is a Chartered Accountant with experience of working in both Public and Private Sectors over many years.

Who Should Attend ?
Finance for Non-Financials is a half day workshop which will help personnel in non-financial roles to understand the basics of financial accounting.
It would also be of benefit to people working in sections of finance, such as Creditors/Purchases, Payroll and Debtors/Sales etc. as it will inform them of where their section fits into the whole financial structure.
